Most timeline articles hand you a range and stop there. This one shows you where every week of a website project actually goes, names the four things behind almost every delay, and puts a cost in days on each of them. Read it before you sign anything, because it will tell you whether the date you have been quoted is a real plan or a hopeful one.
The build work inside a small business website comes to 6 to 8 weeks, yet a troubled project shows 4 or 5 months on the calendar, and nearly all of that gap is waiting rather than working. This guide puts a price in working days on every missing item, from text that never arrives to a domain login nobody can find, and ends with the ten question checklist worth finishing before anyone quotes you a date.
Sorting, tagging, summarising, data entry — AI excels at the dull work that drains skilled people.
Almost every page answering this question hides behind the words it depends, so this one does the opposite. Here are the real price bands, a typical quote taken apart line by line, the arithmetic behind every driver that lifts a number, the bill that arrives every year after launch, and an honest account of the times when the cheaper option is the one we would tell you to take.
AI is not just hype — it is quietly changing how real companies handle support, decisions and routine work.
Slow pages lose visitors and rankings. The good news: most speed problems have well-known, fixable causes.
Store submission has rules that reject the unprepared. Knowing them in advance saves weeks of back-and-forth.
Three businesses ask us this same question in three different ways, and the honest answer is rarely the biggest option. This guide hands you a five minute test built from three questions, the build and running numbers we quote in practice for each choice, and the plain arithmetic that shows when the cheaper option earns more. By the end you will have a decision, a budget and a next step.
The stack you pick shapes cost, speed and how easily you can hire and scale later. Here is how to choose wisely.
Your new site got compliments and the enquiry inbox barely moved, which is a specific problem with a specific fix. This is the arithmetic of your own website in three numbers you can find in an afternoon, the five changes we make for real clients in the order that moves the number, and an honest account of when repairing five pages beats paying for a full rebuild.
Most guides to this decision hand you a polite checklist and leave you no wiser when you are actually sitting across the table. This one does the opposite. Here are the exact questions to ask a web design company, the answers that should make you pause, the arithmetic behind a US$2,000 quote against a US$12,000 one, the timeline you can hold anyone to, and an honest account of when the cheapest option is the right one.
Most owners are sold a shape before anybody asks how many things they actually sell, so here is the arithmetic we use with clients instead: how many addresses a search engine gets to rank, what each extra page really adds to the bill and the calendar, what a single page quietly hides from your own numbers, and a five question test that reaches an answer in ten minutes, including the many times the honest answer is the cheaper one page site.
